Well I checked out both the reviews for the Bridgestone and Metzler and they both rate pretty well. Bridgestone a tad cheaper and Metzler slightly less longevity but otherwise not much difference.

Strongly agree with Graham about most tyres exceeding the capacity of a majority of riders. Definately so in my case anyhow 🤤.

Whichever I opt for it's almost a free hit as my insurance provider will reimburse 50€ of the purchase price as part of a safety equipment promotion ! 👍🏻 Merci beaucoup

Hi all,
It's time to re-shoe the '98 Fazer and was hoping for some recommandations for the best choice of tyre. No track days or knee down antics. Mostly A/B roads in spring, summer, autumn

Currently wearing, Front: Pirelli Diablo 110/70 ZR 17 MC 54W

Rear: Metzler 160/60 ZR 17 MC (69W)

Any ideas?

Hi,
Thanks for posting. Will check out the Facebook site. Looking forward to picking up some tips and advice about what you rightly say are great bikes.

Think I answered all the questions 😬

Hi, all

Don't know if you have any French members I'm an expat living in Burgundy but joined FOC UK as it seems to have a good following and some interesting posts. And life' is always easier when it's in your mother tongue!

Recently joined as have a acquired a '98 Fazer 600 in pretty good nick. Will be tinkering with rather than restoring as it has been well loved but will undoubtedly be looking for tips and advice.
